Healing Basketball

Chapter 1054 1054. Full Suppression!

Looking at the Blazers with 11 games left, Stern thought of an unthinkable situation.

Not only him, many people thought of that possibility.

The topic of media hype, after the Trail Blazers won 60 wins, also shifted from 23VS24 and NCAA March Madness to them.

The entire basketball world is analyzing the Blazers' style of play.

Some people say that the Trail Blazers are imitating the Spurs system and have received a lot of recognition. From the perspective of team play, the Trail Blazers can see a lot of Spurs' shadows.

But there are many who disagree with this statement, because the performance of the Trail Blazers is stronger and more amazing than last year's Spurs.

Fans who support the Blazers imitating the Spurs' system give a counterargument to this view-the Blazers have a stronger lineup than the Spurs.

Some people say that the Trail Blazers are the first strong offensive team in the contemporary basketball era that no longer regards shooting three-pointers as a "tactic".

Whether it was the Suns during the running and bombing period, or the current one-star Cavaliers and the one-robber four-shot Magic, it can be seen that their three-pointers are mostly tactical choices, and they have tactics. Depends, they need to shoot a good three to win.

Even for the Lakers, the three-pointer tactic is a very important part of the latest version of the triangle offense system.

Teams with three-point shooters will build tactics around three-pointers that can "get 1 more point".

But the Trail Blazers are different. For them, three-pointers are just an option. They can win by making 15 three-pointers. Three points win.

Some people say that the Trail Blazers have shown people what is called a real "point forward". KING's offense is called a "point forward". Husband Francis.

The Trail Blazers here, Hill and Diaw, are really combing the offense in tandem.

They take on the important task of organizing and attacking in the game, but they are not the focus of the ball. Even when they do not perform well with the ball, they can play off the ball. When the state is really poor, the team can even use them. There are also other ways to play a good offense, instead of losing their team's offense and collapsing.

There's a lot to say these days about how the Blazers are different from other teams...

Before the Trail Blazers won 60 wins, people's attention was focused on the extremely hot 23VS24 head-to-head and distance competition.

At that time, there were not so many sayings.

But when they had a record-breaking possibility, the talk mushroomed.

...

Being the focus, the new players were very restless at first, but seeing the attitude of the old players on the team, the new players felt that their reaction was too 'earthy', imitating the old players and pretending not to care Accepting interviews and talking with the media... It feels extraordinarily cool!
This is a process, and every new player who has come to the Trail Blazers in recent years has been like this, and they get used to it over time.

Two days of rest passed, and on March 3, the game day for the Trail Blazers vs. the Lakers arrived.

7:40 p.m., Lakers first on court

"Los Angeles Lakers, 60 wins and 11 losses, averaging 106.9 points per game, conceding 97.3 points per game, shooting 48.4% from the field, limiting opponents to 44.9% from the field..."

After defeating the Nuggets in an away game the day before yesterday, the Lakers became the second team to win 2 games this season!

There are 11 games left. Although the Lakers lost the chance to tie the Bulls' highest wins, they still have a chance to surpass the Trail Blazers' 70 wins and 12 losses, the second highest wins in history.

"Kobe Bryant, 30 years old, 198 cm, 96 kg, SG/SF, ability evaluation 99... Played 70 games, averaged 30.4 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.5 assists... Shooting 51.3%, three 40.2% from the field and 87% from the free throw line..."

With the assistance of Deron, Wang Zhizhi, and Odom, Kobe has played the season with the highest offensive efficiency in his career so far this season.

Although the scoring average is a new low in four seasons, the shooting percentage is an all-round career high!
This month, Kobe was in full attendance, averaging 14 points per game in 33 games, and achieved a record of 12 wins and 2 losses, second only to the Trail Blazers' 12 wins and 1 loss, and his personal scoring average rose rarely in March The star returned to average 3+ per game.

After Liu Xiu read the Lakers team report and Kobe Bryant's player detection report, he was both excited and under great pressure.

Tonight's game is highly anticipated. So far this month, the Best Player of the Month Award in the Western Conference has been locked between him and the Great God. The performance of other players in the Western Conference has been separated by him and the Great God. qualitative gap.

Of course he wants this award!

When the home team came in, when Liu Xiu led his teammates into the stadium, he also felt the burning gaze from the opposite side... He could feel that the great god is also determined to win the best of the month!

After entering the arena, the two teams exchanged pleasantries. As usual, Liu Xiu pointed out the direction for Sun Yue to improve, and greeted Brother Da Zhi without chatting too much. Finally, he and the noble and glamorous Great God exchanged opinions. wave.

The starting lineup of the two teams has not changed. The Lakers sent a combination of Deron, Kobe, Ariza, David West, and Wang Zhizhi; the Trail Blazers sent Liu Xiu, Ray Allen, Hill, Randolph, Kua. The May-Brown combo.

Before the All-Star Weekend, the two teams actually had quite a lot of injuries, but Zen Master’s physical strength distribution has been very strong. There are many minor injuries but no one suffers major injuries. Before the All-Star Weekend, they really don't care about the record. During the 20-game winning streak, they should let the players rest and never be greedy for the record... To get 20 consecutive victories, the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers was also very surprised.

Now, even Zen Master, who has won 72 wins, wants to win all the remaining games!
Especially tonight's game and the final game of the regular season against the Trail Blazers, he must win!
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the game started.

Kwame Brown defeated Wang Zhizhi to win the jump ball. The Lakers had full confidence in Wang Zhizhi's jump ball, and directly prepared to defend against the opening fast break, forcing the Blazers to fall into a positional battle.

Different from the brisk offense of the Trail Blazers, the Lakers averaged high points per game, but the rhythm was moderate, and they mainly focused on positional warfare.

Liu Xiu's offensive performance at the beginning was not good. Although he copied the 'reasonable' bonus from Kobe, he tried to choose the best shot, but he still made 3 of 0 shots in the start.

The Lakers started off very well defensively.

However, Kobe's performance at the beginning was similar. He made 2 of 0 shots and got a foul, but Kwame Brown made a serious foul. Kobe missed the first free throw and only made the second free throw. He only scored 1 point in the half quarter.

In the second half of the first quarter, Ray Allen worked hard and scored two three-pointers in a row, which ignited Liu Xiu's shooting touch!
At 9 minutes and 58 seconds, Liu Xiu stepped back and hit a three-pointer, followed by a mid-range shot after a pick-and-roll, scoring 5 points in a row. He and Ray Allen played a wave of 11-7 together, and the Trail Blazers Overtake the Lakers by two points!

科比那边首节虽然拿到5分，但只有5投1中，靠着4中3的罚球才拿到5分。

In the second quarter, Liu Xiu and Kobe continued the inefficient performance of the first quarter, but the two teams made better use of each other's defense against the opponent's strongest scorer.

大卫-韦斯特5投3中，外加4中4的罚球，单节拿到10分，德隆2分1板5助攻，组织进攻做得极好，王治郅靠着德隆传球6投3中，其中三分球2中1，拿到7分……全队单节30分！
另一边，兰多夫单节也拿到了10分！9投4中外加罚球2中2的效率看起来不高，但他单节3个进攻篮板球，让队友们可以放心大胆的投。

Liu Xiu made 4 of 1 shots in this quarter and scored a three-pointer. In addition to Wang Zhizhi's three-second defensive free throw, he scored 4 points, but he still had 2 rebounds and 5 assists. Ray Allen scored 5 points, France 6 points from outsiders... The Trail Blazers scored 32 points in a single quarter, once again overwhelming the Lakers!
The Lakers are in very good condition and performed well. When the defensive goal is achieved, the offensive performance is also online, but the performance of the Trail Blazers is even better!
After halftime, the Trail Blazers led the Lakers by 56 points 53 to 3!
In the third quarter, the Lakers did not start from the offensive end. They tried in the second quarter, but failed. Randolph, Ray Allen, and the outlaws performed very well. Rhythm, they succeeded in this, but the offensive efficiency of the Trail Blazers in the second quarter continued.

In the second quarter, the Trail Blazers relied on their offensive rebounding advantage and faster pace. They took as many as 26 shots in a single quarter. In the third quarter, they only took 16 shots in a single quarter, but they made 16 of 8 shots and a shooting rate as high as 50%. 5 of 2 points, plus 10 of 7 free throws scored 25 points in a single quarter!
In addition to outstanding offensive performance, the Trail Blazers made good use of the inside defensive lineup of Birdman, Kwame Brown, and Gasol to prevent the Lakers from making 20 of 8 shots, including 6 of 2 three-pointers and 5 of 3. free throws and only scored 21 points!
After three quarters, the Trail Blazers' lead expanded to 7 points, leading the Lakers 81 to 74!
At the end of the quarter, the Lakers gave it a go. Kobe started the West Coast style of play, and after being blocked by the Trail Blazers for 3 quarters, he soared. Got 9 points.

But the teammates continued their inefficient offensive performance in the third quarter. The teammates took 12 shots and only scored 10 points.

On the other side, Liu Xiu did not follow Kobe Bryant, he chose a reasonable way to pass the ball for Ray Allen.

Ray Allen made 9 of 5 shots in the final quarter. Although he did not make free throws, he made 5 of 3 three-pointers and scored 13 points in a single quarter!
刘秀单节4分3板4助攻1抢断1盖帽，在防守端和传球方面倾尽全力，率队末节以25比24再赢湖人队1分！

科比今晚25投9中，其中三分球9中3，外加12中11的罚球，单场拿到32分7板3助攻3抢断1盖帽，末节得分、防守做得都很好，但整体得分被限制住了。

刘秀23投8中，其中三分球6中2，外加7中6的罚球，23投只拿到24分，但还有12板13助攻4抢断2盖帽！

开拓者队以106比98击败湖人队，拿下5连胜，将战绩提升至63胜9负！
The Trail Blazers and the Lakers scored 2 wins and 1 loss this season!
After the final whistle sounded, Kobe left with a shake of his hands. The loss was too embarrassing!
The points are almost the same, only 8 points, but the Lakers lost every quarter, 1 point, 2 points, 4 points, 1 point, and only lost a little bit in each quarter, but that is the little bit, the Lakers lost every quarter. The morale of the team is declining because of that little point difference, and the confidence is also declining.

Kobe failed to drive the team with 14 points in the final quarter because of this.

But this also shows the strong strength and stability of the Trail Blazers!
...

The Trail Blazers defeated the Lakers head-on, and the balance of the Player of the Month award was tilted towards the Trail Blazers. Public opinion generally believed that as long as the Trail Blazers did not lose all of their last two games, Liu Xiu's Player of the Month award would be decided.

In addition to this, there is another hot topic about Liu Xiu-the warden is bullying the 'new triple double king' from the air.

On the 25th, when the Hornets defeated the Thunder, Guigui scored 16 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists, and won his 10th triple-double this season, tying Liu Xiu’s performance in his rookie season and tied for second place in the rookie triple-double list .

The nickname of "little warden" has been hung on Westbrook's head this year.

As a result, Liu Xiu immediately won his 11th triple-double, once again occupying the top spot in the triple-double rankings this season.

Don't give any face to the turtles who use him as a template!

However, Guigui's new template is the warden. This matter is not well recognized.

Liu Xiu's rookie style of play was selfless and non-sticky. He had 10 triple-doubles and averaged only 4.6 assists per game. Turtle's possession rate was higher than Paul and Wade, and second only to James.

Moreover, Liu Xiu's shooting rate in his rookie year is quite good, with a performance of 46.5%, and Guigui's shooting rate is less than 40%.

Turtle fans are also dissatisfied with this nickname. In their minds, Westbrook will surpass Liu Xiu in the future... The Hornets still have 11 games to play, and may surpass Liu Xiu's triple-double in his rookie season. About to surpass Liu Xiu...

But Liu Xiu has no time to care about the number of triple-doubles of Guigui... I don’t care about it, and there is no chance to educate Guigui again. The regular season has finished all 4 matches, unless the Hornets play second in the playoffs. Only after three rounds, it is possible to play against each other again. The Hornets can't fall to the seventh and eighth positions.

Now, Liu Xiu has a bigger goal...

After a day of rest, on March 3, the game day for the Trail Blazers vs. Mavericks arrived.

At noon, an interview made the Trail Blazers fans into a carnival, as if the man's rhetoric had been realized...

"Yes, I'm ready, our goal is to surpass the Bulls!"
